Is a major aim of your life to help people find joy in Jesus?

There are many ups and downs in the lives we lead, yet always we know the immediate presence of the Lord who loves us and his promise of joy!

• "These things I (Jesus) have spoken to you, that my joy may be in your and that your joy may be made full." John 15:11
• "Jesus… who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross." Hebrews 12:2

You may encourage the people in your life with words such as: I am with you! I will help you! Take heart! Well Done! Yet, the One who also says these things and will be with the people in your life, whether you are there or not, is Jesus.

So, above all, remind people of the joy in Jesus, even as you offer them good cheer, your presence and your help

"The joy of the Lord is your strength!" Nehemiah 8:10
